Abstract
- Renal artery aneurysms are relatively uncommon, being found in approximately 0.09% of the general population. They are usually found incidentally during investigation of patients with microscopic hematuria or high blood pressure. Rupture is the most lethal complication of renal aneurysms. Surgical treatment had been common for these aneurysms. We report a case of about 2-cm-diameter renal artery aneurysm successfully treated by embolization with non-detachable platinum coil.
